Fenix A320 Block 2 Nosewheel Steering Issues Fix

[vanislepilot]

If you are having issues getting the Fenix A320 V2 nosewheel steering to work, ensure you delete all 'SteeringTiller' lines in FSUIPC7.ini file under the [JoystickCalibration.FENIX A320] (or whatever you have named it) section. This solved it for me.

Hi, how can I nevertheless assign the tiller axes to fenix a320, what I did with assigning "steeringTiller"  didnt work. I dont want to control via MSFS controls.

Did you try either the Steering Set or Axis Steering Set axes (using 'Send to FS as normal axis')?

FSUIPCs SteeringTiller axis is a special axis that should only be used in conjunction with the rudder and provides blending between the rudder and tiller (see the User guide). If you are using a separate Steering Tiller axis, you should try assigning to one of the MSFS-provided steering controls.

If those don't work in the fenix, then you will need to look to see if any input events or lvars are available to control this axis. I don't have the fenix so cannot look into his for you, but if you log/list the available lvars and input events and anything looks applicable I can show you how to use theses.

Hi John, it only works in conjunction with MSFS controls assignment "Nose Wheel Steering Axis" AND  FSUIPC  "Send direct to ...." and  "SteeringTiller".

I tried Axis Steering Set axes (using 'Send to FS as normal axis'), but didnt work.

What is the correct way ?

So it doesn't work with only the MSFS assignment? That is very strange. The Nose Wheel Steering control is not available for external assignments - there is no such event in the SDK.

Did you try Steering Set? Also try this without calibration first (i.e. remove any steering calibration).

As I don't have this aircraft, I don't know. Try the Steering Set control. If that doesn't work, list/log input events to see if there are any that control the steering tiller. Also list the lvars and show me a log file.
